Zygomatic Implants Istanbul, Turkey, Cost, Pros and Cons
What is Zygomatic Implant? Istanbul
Zygomatic implant is an implant method applied to the zygoma (cheekbone) bone of patients who do not have sufficient upper jaw bone volume for classical implant treatment. For patients with bone resorption in the upper jaw bone structure, the zygoma implant plays a saving role. The cheekbone (zygoma) has an extremely favourable structure for implant placement. Even if the bone structure is not sufficient for normal implant treatment, it is possible to have implant treatment thanks to the zygomatic implant.
Zygomatic implants, like other implants, are made of titanium alloy and are also an extremely robust material with high bone and soft tissue compatibility. The difference from other implants is that it is longer in length. The zygomatic implant has various lengths starting from 30 mm up to 52.5 mm with 2.5 mm intervals. In addition, the implant head is not flat, it has a 45-degree angle. With this long structure and special angle, zygomatic implants provide support from the zygoma bone, which is at a distance.
Zygomatic implant, which allows more patients to benefit from implant treatment, is a treatment process that should be carried out meticulously by specialist dentists who have trained themselves in this field.

How is a zygomatic implant performed?
The zygomatic dental implant, which is similar to the classical implant treatment, is a different application in terms of where the implant is placed. Zygomatic implant treatment is generally done as follows:
Examination in zygomatic implant
Firstly, the general health status of the patient is evaluated. If the general health condition of the patient is suitable for implant treatment, the upper jaw structure is visualised in detail. This procedure is performed with computer-aided X-Guide technology in our clinic in addition to X-ray and tomography. In this way, the patient's upper jaw structure is evaluated in three dimensions. In patients with insufficient jaw bone volume, zygoma implant application is preferred.
Planning in zygomatic implant treatment
The planning stage of the treatment is started. According to the position of the zygoma bone, the size of the implant to be used and the place where the implant will be placed are determined. For the implant prosthesis, porcelain veneer or zirconium crown material is preferred according to the patient's preference.
Application in zygomatic implant treatment
The application is performed under general anaesthesia. Implant placement is performed on the patient's zygoma bone at a predetermined size and angle by surgical intervention. Then, a temporary prosthesis is placed on the implant so that the patient does not have aesthetic problems.
Implant Integration in zygomatic implant treatment
A period of 3 months should be waited for the integration of the implant into the zygoma bone. During this time, the cheekbone will surround the implant and integrate with the implant.
Prosthesis Placement in zygomatic implant treatment
When the bone fusion process of the implant is completed, the permanent tooth prosthesis is placed on the implant and the zygomatic implant treatment is completed.
Who can get a zygomatic implant?
Zygomatic implant is performed in patients who have tooth loss but do not have enough bone volume in the upper jaw bone for implant placement and bone volume augmentation treatment is not preferred. Some patients experience losses in the upper jaw bone due to reasons such as bone resorption, long time after tooth loss, trauma, gum and bone diseases. Zygomatic implant is a method applied to patients with bone loss for the reasons we mentioned.
